Steps

1. 1

   Marinate the shrimp. Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a large zip-top bag, then add your shrimp. Seal the bag, removing any excess air, then marinate in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat the skillet. Preheat a large cast iron skillet or pan over medium-high heat on your grill or stovetop.

3. 3

   Season onions and peppers. Toss your onions and peppers in avocado oil to thoroughly coat, then season with fajita seasoning, or Hey Grill Hey Fiesta Rub.

4. 4

   Prep the toppings. Assemble all of your fajita toppings so you are ready to eat just as the food finishes cooking.

5. 5

   Cook the shrimp. Add 1 Tablespoon avocado oil to the preheated skillet. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and then add to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the shrimp reads 140 degrees F internal temperature. Remove the shrimp to a bowl and let rest.

6. 6

   Cook the vegetables. Add the seasoned vegetables to the hot skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat on the skillet.

7. 7

   Assemble and serve. Return the shrimp to the hot skillet with the vegetables and serve to your family for a restaurant-style sizzling finish. Serve with warmed tortillas and all of your favorite fajita toppings.
